A maintenance worker at Lexington Golf Club was shocked when he touched a water cooler at 55 Hill St., according to golf course workers. The surge may have been connected to the storm. The victim, who was conscious and alert after the incident, was taken to Lahey Clinic as a precaution.

About two miles away, firefighters battled a two-alarm fire at 20 Tufts Road.

Officials said the fire was "most likely caused by lightning strike."

The home was under renovation at the time, and the residents were able to escape without injury.

"The lightning struck and everything shook. I saw ash. When I opened the attic door there was fire everywhere," resident Allen Jin said. "We had this phase where my parents were trying to get everything out, and then they just told me to get out."

"We had a few burglar alarms called in in this neighborhood, and then we got called in for the house fire," Lexington Fire Department Chief John Wilson said.

On the South Shore, the storm brought hail to some communities as it passed through the region.
